Meter the light, plot the scene, and walk onto set knowing exactly how every frame will expose
Meter the light, plot the scene, and walk onto set knowing exactly how every frame will expose. CineLight is the on-set companion for cinematographers, gaffers, and camera crews.
LIGHT METER
Spot-meter exposure straight from your phone. Read f-stop, shutter angle, ISO, and color temperature in Kelvin, then lock the combination that matches your look.
LIGHT PLOTTER
Lay out your scene on an interactive canvas. Drop camera, talent, key, fill, and backlight, then save the diagram for every shot so a reshoot lands the same look months later.
FIXTURE CARDS
Document every unit on the floor: model, output percentage, modifier, color temp, and distance to subject. No more guessing what you ran on the last setup.
ON-SET CALCULATORS
- Inverse-Square Law: see exactly how much you lose when a fixture moves back.
- Flicker-Free: safe FPS and shutter angle for 50 Hz and 60 Hz mains.
- Slow-Motion: how many stops to add when you jump from 24 to 240 fps.
- Gels & Filters: stop loss and color shift for CTO, CTB, and diffusion.
FALSE COLOR & ZONES
Check exposure on faces at a glance and catch clipped highlights before the take, not in the grade.
GRIP TRUCK
Track the fixtures, stands, flags, and rigging you have available so you only plan with gear that's actually on the truck.
EXPORT
Build a clean PDF lighting diagram your crew can pre-rig from before you arrive.
Units your way: lux or foot-candles, shutter angle or fractions, 50 Hz or 60 Hz as your default region.
CineLight keeps your exposure, your lighting plan, and your gear in one place, from the recce to the final reshoot.
